Event Information
About this Event
Join OMO educators this summer as we look deeply into our pedagogy in this weekly Book Study. Regardless of where you teach, we can each reflect on best practices and our own experiences. Small and large group discussion of various books related to teaching and English/Social Studies will be held each Monday at 11am EST.
During our first gathering (via Zoom on OMO) we will will decide who will read which book and the timeline for reading/follow-up.
